The work was carried out when I was away from home and I left Kevin free access to my house. the work was completed ahead of schedule and to his usual good standard and to budget. Kevin and I discussed the work to be carried out and on my return it was complete. Kevin as ever did his usual belt and braces job. I would recommend Kevin to any body He is good value for money.

Kevin and Dave fitted a new bathroom where a bodged job by previous owner made it a nightmare, and also painted a difficult loft room, making good where necessary. Kevin responded swiftly to our enquiry, came to quote when he said he would, and kept us informed when an earlier job meant he had to nudge our start date by 5 days. He is an old school builder who knows exactly how things should be done and refuses to cut corners, saying doing things properly from the start saves time in the long run. Unfailingly helpful, always courteous and friendly, they left the house clean and tidy every night and showed us where we could save money. Blue Ribbon would be my go-to builders for any further work in the future despite having used other Trusted Traders in the past - you could say we saved the best till last.

We had our letting flat renovated ten years ago and were very pleased with the work Kevin and his team did then so I was delighted to find he was still around and available to do the same when updating was required again. Once again he turned up when he said he would, did an an excellent job - everything from refitting the kitchen, replastering where required , redecorating, plumbing and electrical work, and remaking the outside step and tiling - all in the time scale and price agreed and with helpful alternative suggestions when needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Blue Ribbon Construction for any building project being considered. I hope he is still around in the next ten years - but then I don't think I shall be!!

Just had a new kitchen installed by Kevin and Dave and am very happy with the result. I had used Blue Ribbon twice previously so they were my first choice to fit my kitchen. Kevin helped me with getting the kitchen designed, liaising with the designer and the kitchen company after I’d had an initially frustrating experience with another company. Once the work started it progressed in the efficient way I had come to expect from Blue Ribbon. Communication was great and it was easy to make suggestions. Kevin and Dave are friendly and polite and work meticulously. Will definitely use them again and recommend them highly.

Kevin and Dave have just completed our new fitted kitchen and we are delighted with the end result. They had to get back to basics in our old kitchen -renewing plumbing, electrics and plastering before fitting the kitchen. They completed the job with as little fuss as possible dealing with issues as they arose and ensuring everything was done to the highest standard. Based on their expertise they offered ideas and pragmatic solutions as problems came to light, particularly as there appear to be no straight walls in our kitchen! They worked hard and completed the job within the budget and time agreed. They were always friendly and responsive to our ideas and requests, going above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the end result. We would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a new kitchen fitted.

Kevin and Dave of Blue Ribbon Construction did a great job refurbishing my kitchen, utility room and downstairs toilet. Their work was of a high standard and I’m very pleased with the finished result.

Poor communication and did not turn up for a quote appointment
Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with Blue Ribbon Construction. I first contacted Blue Ribbon construction via email on 19/05/21 in regards to a quote for a bathroom renovation project. I received no reply so I called Kevin on 22/05/21 to arrange for an appointment for a quote in 3 weeks’ time as he reported he was fully booked till then. He said he couldn’t commence work until September, which I said I’m happy to wait. We agreed for him to arrive at 10am on a Saturday. I received no email or text or call to confirm the appointment. On the Monday of the week he was supposed to come, I called and he confirmed the appointment was still going ahead. On the day at 10am he did not come. So my partner called him at 11am, he said he was running late but will be there in 1 hour. By 1pm, we still did not hear from him. I called again at 1:30pm but it was switched to voicemail. I left a message to ask if he was still coming or should we arrange for another time, I have heard nothing since. Based on my experience I would not recommend Blue Ribbon Construction as I felt this behaviour is both unprofessional and rude.

Once again Kevin and Dave from Blue Ribbon have done a fantastic job. We first used them early this year to totally redo our bathroom and knock 2 small bedroom into one. They did a fantastic job. Jobs included electrics, plumbing, new floors, tiling and decorating. All done in a professional manner. So good that we’ve just had them back to re-decorate throughout and to knock down another wall. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. Would highly recommend Blue Ribbon.

Kevin has recently revitalised a very tired old bedroom, rewiring, fitting a new ceiling, re-plastering and decorating. It's the fourth or fifth time he has done work for us and the service is always the same - efficient, committed and friendly throughout. The budget was kept to, although he did find time to re-silicone a shower tray and fix a few door handles which certainly didn't feature on the estimate. Kevin loves to solve a building problem if you have one, and is happy to discuss the solution. Thanks Kev.

I contacted Kevin about redecorating our lounge and hallway, as well as some electrical work. From our first contact until after the work's completion, Kevin was polite, helpful, friendly and honest. He and his uncle, David, arrived promptly every day, putting in 8 hour days, and managed to complete the work earlier than planned! Kevin kept us updated at all stages of the work and was happy to do extra little jobs I kept finding for him! Kevin and David even put in extra hours after they'd completed their work to repair some previous work that was not up to scratch, again without complaint. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Kevin. I will certainly use his company in the future.

He and his colleague were friendly and very helpful throughout. I had a large part of my property painted and it looks wonderful.

I thought the work was reasonably priced in comparison with others. I would definitely recommend this company.

Called Kevin to address the problem of a leaking shower, which was going through to the bedroom below. He was already very busy, but managed to squeeze me in over a couple of weeks. It meant removing a tile to get to the problem, which was a leaking joint to the shower hose. He did a brilliant job managing not to damage any of the adjacent tiles and with the aid of his grout folder, managed to match it perfectly. It now looks as if has never been touched. He then re-plastered the patch of the ceiling below which had to be removed and again did a perfect job. Very happy with the results and for a very reasonable price too. Would happily recommend.

Kevin and Dave fitted a new kitchen at my mums house which included removing old kitchen units and very old tiles, plastering, decorating and re tiling. Kevin was happy to offer friendly advise and do a few extra jobs that mum decided she would like done as the work was in progress. Kevin also painted/decorated the hallway landing and stairs, the living room and a bedroom that required re-plastering, as well as decorating and fitting a new toilet cistern to the downstairs toilet. From the very beginning the communication from Kevin was excellent and the work was all carried out to a high standard and on schedule within the cost quoted. He and Dave are friendly reliable and their work is very high standard. Best of all mum is over the moon with her lovely new kitchen and newly decorated rooms. I would definitely recommend Kevin and will be contacting him again soon to quote on similar work my daughter wants done.

Kevin and Dave have just finished a big makeover of our kitchen diner, involving some building work, preparing and decorating all walls and ceilings, fitting new lighting and power points, and also working on and planning some new fitted cupboards and doors. It all looks terrific and, at short notice, they went on to lay a whole new paving terrace outside when we decided the old one was 'letting down' the new kitchen. Kevin's done loads of good work for us over the years, virtually re-furbishing the whole house. Every time he is fastidiously careful to get things right and as others have noted, will go the extra mile to get things up to his own high professional standards. He is always thoughtful, hard-working and efficient, and a pleasure to have on the case !

Kevin and his workmate Dave, have completely redecorated our kitchen, dining room and conservatory. They installed a false ceiling in the kitchen to enable the fitting of down lights as well as laying a new laminate floor throughout. In addition they did some tiling and built a large shelf over the oven including corbels. They subsequently prepared and painted all the walls and woodwork. There were numerous other little jobs that they did as they went along. Nothing was ever too much bother, and they even came to our rescue when the installers of our new oven had a problem with the electrics. Kevin dived in and sorted it without hesitation. Kevin was a font of knowledge and offered helpful suggestions when we were unsure of which way to go. We are more than happy with their work and they are fairly priced too. It is comforting to know a reliable and trustworthy builder who we can call upon. In fact we have just asked Kevin to quote for doing some hard landscaping work in our garden.

Kevin has just completed a complete refit of our 80's bathroom. We're delighted with it. As with all clients, I suspect, we did change our minds from time to time opting for extras - underfloor heating for one - so the original budget was mutually and amicably increased but the result is just what we wanted. As previously, Kevin was happy to offer his time and advice as well as undertaking most of the trades himself. We live in a Victorian house with its inherent problems, but Kevin evidently loves problems and seems happy to spend a generous amount of his time solving them. He is committed to undertaking quality work which is safe and reliable and which will not cause ongoing problems. We would wholeheartedly recommend his services.

Kevin and his team are simply the best who've done work for us in the 30 years we've been in this house.

Unlike a lot of building bosses who do the initial quote never to be seen again, Kevin works with his team every day and once the job is started they work until it's finished ??" on time and on budget.

Kevin Cronin and his business partner are personally very competent in a broad range of professional trades but not averse to calling in other skills as required. Beacaues of their skill strenghths their core business tends to be centred on building new, and refurbishing bathrooms and kitchens. However they are prepared to quote for a wide range of work large or small and can be relied upon to carry out the work that they undertake in a timely, competent and customer friendly way. I highly recommend this company

We hired Kevin to redo our bathroom and he and his colleague did excellent work. From our first meeting and quote until the last tile they were always professional, extremely friendly and helpful (trying to keep noise down while the baby was sleeping) and gave us great advice on little things like grout colours etc. Everything was done on time and budget and we will definitely hire them again for our next job.

I had a penetrating damp problem in the bath room which I had a surveyor inspect and provide recommendations of the work required. I also needed the bath room completely renovated. Blue Ribbon Construction took on the work, which consisted of:- Removing the rendering from the external wall and re-rendering , removing Masonry paint from the other wall.Repaint with specialist masonry plant on both walls. Lower the para pit wall on the roof replace the coping stones. Remove the plaster from internal walls and re plaster. All this work done to the surveyors specification. Put in a complete new bathroom suite including putting in shower Putting in a new floor and ceiling. The work was done on time but with out short cuts. They worked monday to Friday all day and as required at weekends if I was agreeable. They worked hard and did a very good job. I spotted a couple of minor problems and they came back promptly to rectify. I have no hesitation in recommending them and propose to use them again in the Spring.

Complete renovation of the Bathroom, including 1. resolving a long standing penetrating damp problem in consultation with my surveyor and the paint manufactures, to ensure the problem could rectified. 2.taking out the old bath, sink etc., floor and ceiling and replacing them. 3. Finishing the decoration to a high standard and my satisfaction. He provided an estimate which was kept to. He kept me fully informed during the work and discussed any problems he had so they could be resolved. I found him to be very reliable to the extent that he would telephone if he was going to be late that day. I considered his estimate to be fair. I have subsequently used Kevin to refurbish, 2 bedrooms, the hall, front wall and foot path. I have also recommend him to neighbours and friends and they have been very satisfied with his work.

We have used Kevin and his co-workers multiple times in the past and they never fall below our high standards. He recently converted our old kitchen and dinning room in to a lovely kitchen diner which we were overly please about. In the past we have used him for bathrooms, painting, decorating and plastering, landscaping and just for general advice on any building work we required- Kevin is always happy to advise. Would defiantly use him again and would also highly recommend him.

I notice Blue Ribbon have lots of positive reviews under the builders and bathrooms/kitchens section but we used them for exterior decorating of three adjacent properties. They weren't cheap but they were definitely value for money as their work was thorough, properly prepared and painstakingly finished. Kevin also did a small internal repair and paint job for me while he was there and wouldn't charge for it. They are also very nice people.

I cannot recommend Kevin and his colleagues at Blue Ribbon enough; they are simply outstanding. Kevin has done numerous handyworks around my flat in Twickenham all to an exceptional standard and a competitive rate. The largest project he has done for me to date was the replacement of my kitchen; not a simple job as it was an awkward space requiring a raised floor and significant remediation of the walls. The result is stunning; first class finish and functional, making the most of the space. Quality and value aside, The reason I rate Kevin so highly is because of his integral, honest and personable nature. I'm able to trust him to work whilst I'm at work or out of the country knowing that he communicate progress, issues and get the job done. Highly recommended; my first port of call. Matt

We found their reviews on Which ?Local very helpful. Excellent service. Perfect gentlemen and very professional. British Gas had given us a quote for £850 to Power Flush the system but we were not convinced. Blue Ribbon advised us that we did not need a Power Flush.They suggested we call British Gas and explain to them that we had had second opinion and the power flush was not necessary. All it needed was to recharge the pressure vessel. British Gas visited and agreed that recharging had indeed made a difference. The central heating is in working order now. Thanks a million to Blue Ribbon. Highly recommended.

We used Kevin and his team based on previous reviews on this website and weren't disappointed. Kevin's quote was reasonable, the standard of work was first class and it was completed on time. We had a kitchen re-fit done for a rental property and Kevin came up with lots of value for money ideas - he understood our requirements and didn't try to up-sell us at any point. It was also a huge help that Kevin had a good working relationship with Benchmarx, who provided the Kitchen. We've had headaches before with builders who weren't familiar with what was being installed, so it was great that this wasn't an issue at all this time around. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kevin and his team and would certainly use him again. Katie and Andy Phillips

We have used Kevin (Blue Ribbon Construction) and his team for various jobs in our house in the last couple of months. In the last 2 years we have had bad experiences with tradesmen and builders and were looking for a trustworthy builder who delivers excellent work and we have definitely found this in Kevin. The standard of the work is excellent, they always show up agreed time, deliver within budget/agreed time and they are very flexible. We have found that we get pro-active advice and the best price/value solution for any piece of work from Kevin. Kevin has now done work on our heating system, bathroom and kitchen and we have a number of future jobs lined up for him. We can strongly recommend Kevin to anyone without any hesitation!

I was recommended Blue Ribbon back in 2007 and have not looked back since. Kevin and his team have remodelled my entire house plastering/internal doors/wet room/rear extension and new kitchen. Not much left of the original house but its been fun working with Kevin and his team. We havenÍt finished yet Kevin and his team are about to start on building my new garage and landscaping my rear garden. Kevin and his team turn up on time and are totally reliable. Its refreshing to find a builder that does what you want and to a high standard.

As with other reviewers I found Kevin and his team prompt, honest and reliable. They completed the refurbishment of our flat on time and within budget - the building and plumbing work was to a high standard - plastering was particularly impressive. Everything was left very clean and tidy and I would certainly use them again and add my recommendation. Bevill

We approached Blue Ribbon basis the positive comments made here in Which Local. Kevin came to our property and assessed the work, made useful recommendations where required and within a few days provided us with a written quote for the work. A start date was agreed. The work was completed to a high standard, on time and to budget. Friendly, reliable, trust worthy and capable. Happy to recommend.

We have used Kevin several times since 2009. He has undertaken some reasonably major projects including stripping out and refitting of bathroom, shower room, toilet and kitchen. Kevin always undertakes the work himself, assisted as necessary by one or two regular helpers (there is no casual labour). It is a highly professional and friendly team, and they clean up on a daily basis. The standard of plumbing, tiling, plastering, cupboard fitting and electrical work is high.

Blue Ribbon have built a workshop for me at the bottom of the garden. This is the start of a series of projects to convert the garage (workshop) into a utility room and toilet, and update the bathroom and kitchen. Kevin has been involved from the start and has provided good, money saving advice enabling us to rely on his honesty and judgment. He and his workers are prompt, efficient, friendly and tidy up before leaving each day. We got estimates from other builders for the remaining work, but have chosen to continue with Blue Ribbon throughout the whole project.

Kevin Cronin [ Blue Ribbon ] is that rare thing - highly organized, painstaking, reliable and professional. He has done 3 seperate projects for us: turning two old rooms into one new bedroom and completely refurbishing and modernising both a shower room and a family bathroom. In all cases he has handled all aspects of construction -electrics,plumbing,plastering, tiling etc. He has completed everything within budget and timetable, with proper concern for our needs as clients.
